The -D option of command line does't work when -pipe option is used

Question

I'm using the following command:

java -jar ../plantuml.jar -teps -DSMALLDIAGRAM=TRUE -pipe < class_diagram.puml > class_diagram_small.eps

And in my code I have:

!ifdef SMALLDIAGRAM
    DO X
!else
    DO Y
!endif

And only the else is executed.

I'm trying yo use the pipe because I want to generate two EPS documents from the same .puml file, so executing one command with the -D and setting the SMALLDIAGRAM to TRUE it would generate a small_diagram.eps and without it, would generate a diagram.eps.
